Our worship style is recognisably "high church," enhanced by colour, movement, candlelight, music and often incense, with an emphasis on the Sacraments. "O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness, bow down before him, his glory proclaim; with gold of obedience and incense of lowliness, kneel and adore him - the Lord is his name."
Eucharist/Holy Communion
Sung Eucharist/Holy Communion in contemporary language with a sermon.
Coffee, tea and biscuits are served after the service - do stay for a chat!
Usually Evening Prayer - but every month there is at least one service of a different type, such as Taizé, Wholeness and Healing, which is described separately in these listings.
